Al Dempster Art from Little Golden Book

This is one of my most prized pieces of art, an original painting for the Little Golden Book Alice in Wonderland Meets the White Rabbit. I've had this for a very long time, but I cannot for the life of me remember exactly when or where I got it...a sure sign of old age . The art is surprisingly small, it is essentially actual size compared to the art as published in the book.

Over the years I've seen a number of the paintings from the Big Golden Book (I've owned two myself, and still own one), in fact Heritage has recently auctioned off two pages in their two most recent auctions here and here. But this is the only page from a Little Golden Book I've ever come across.
